Sorry, my original post contained the actual control character. Here
it is with '^L' replaced with '^'+'L'. The original post doesn't need
to be changed to be used, this one needs the ^L characters changed
to the actual character.

From previous article:
>    I made the following changes to verbatimfiles.sty in order to get
> verbatim files to print as single spacing and recognize form feeds
> as a newpage.
> --------------------------------------------------------------------
> \catcode`\^L=\active \outer\def^L{\newpage} % DMR 7-28-92
Change:     ^^      and          ^^
> \def\verbatimfile#1{\begingroup \ssp        % \ssp added DMR 7-28-92
>                     \@verbatim \frenchspacing \@vobeyspaces
>                     \input#1 \endgroup
> }
> --------------------------------------------------------------------
> %  EXAMPLE:
> %  \documentstyle[..,verbatimfile,..]{..} 
> %  ..
> %  \begin{document}
> %  ..
> %  \verbatimfile{file.f}
> %  ..
> %  \end{document}
> 
> ssp provides the single spacing and was previously defined in ucthesis.sty as;
> \def\ssp{\def\baselinestretch{1.0}\large\normalsize}
> 
> Maybe these changes should be added to the original `verbatim'.sty files
> 
> Just thought I would pass on this info.
